Built-in backup battery

• Before the first use, charge the built-in backup battery

(lithium battery) by turning on the power for 48 hours or
more. If it is not charged enough, in a case where the
power goes down, the internal clock may keep bad time
or the operative condition may be different to that before
the electric power failure.

• The built-in battery life is approx. 5 years as an indication

of replacement. (The built-in battery life may become
shorter depending on the use condition.)Replace the
built-in battery after 5 years of use. ("5 years of use" is
just an indication of replacement. We are not providing
any guarantee of the built-in battery lifetime.)When the
built-in battery life runs out, some settings such as the
time and date setting will not be saved once the power
is turned off.

• Ask your dealer when replacement of the battery is

required.

Hard disk drive (HDD)

• Hard disk drives are vulnerable to vibration. Handle them

with care.

It is possible to damage them if they are moved while

their motors are still running.

• Do not move them just after turning the power off (for

around 30 seconds).

• The lifetime of hard disk drives is limited by use. Write

errors may occur frequently after around 20 000 hours of
operation, and the head and motor deterioration may
occur after around 30 000 hours of operation. They will
reach the end of their lifetime after 30 000 hours of oper-
ation if they have been used at the recommended ambi-
ent temperature (approx. +25 °C {+77 °F})

• It is recommended to replace them after around

18 000 hours of operation to prevent data loss from disk
failures.

• When hard disk drive trouble occurs, replace it immedi

ately.

Contact your dealer about servicing.
